EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 13th century, offering a glimpse into the court costumes of France during that era. The illustration is sourced from "Costumes de Paris à travers les siècles" by H. Gourdon de Genouillac and beautifully engraved by Stablo in the 19th century. The image showcases an array of exquisite court costumes worn by both men and women. Standing elegantly, a stylish female figure captures our attention with her full-length fur ensemble, exuding medieval opulence. Her headdress adds an air of regality to her already striking presence. Beside her stands a young boy, also dressed in fashionable court attire. This portrayal emphasizes how fashion extended beyond adults even during this period, as children were adorned with equally intricate garments. The scene depicted hints at a bustling street in Paris, further emphasizing the influence of French fashion on European society during this time. The use of ermine fur highlights the luxurious taste prevalent among aristocrats and nobles. This color engraving by Gerlier masterfully brings to life the vibrant fashions and cultural nuances of 13th-century France. Preserved within private collections today, these historical costumes serve as reminders of an era marked by sophistication and grandeur.
